MUMBAI, India, April 20 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202524097433 A) filed by Mediatek Inc., Hsinchu City, Taiwan, on Oct. 9, 2025, for 'activity-aware performance and power models for task scheduling on heterogeneous multiprocessors.'
Inventor(s) include Tsung-Yu Tsai; Ya-Ting Chang; Wen-Wen Hsieh; Chien-Yuan Lai; and Kun-Hao Liu.
The application for the patent was published on April 17, under issue no. 16/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "Task scheduling is performed based on activity indexes collected in a heterogeneous multiprocessor computing system. Both per-task activity indexes and per-processor activity indexes include non-stall time of task execution and a corresponding processor operating point (OPP), and stall time of memory access and a corresponding memory OPP. The non-stall time and the stall time are scaled based on at least the corresponding processor OPP and the corresponding memory OPP, respectively. The system uses using the scaled non-stall time and the scaled stall time to estimate capacity and dynamic power of each processor when assigned a given task at a given processor OPP and a given memory OPP. The load demand of the given task is also estimated. A task scheduler assigns the given task to a target processor and requests memory resources for executing the given task to satisfy power and performance criteria."
